Wild Wood Deluxe Edition

A deluxe edition of Wild Wood is set to be released on the 22/10/07.

from recordstore.co.uk:
"This Deluxe edition of Paul Weller’s second solo album follows the overwhelming success of the 2005 Deluxe reissue of ‘Stanley Road'. The project has been personally overseen by Paul Weller and producer Brendan Lynch.

Paul Weller re-established his place at music’s top table with this life-affirming, second solo album - he gained the nickname ‘Modfather’ reflecting his revered status within the UK ‘Britpop’ movement. There was a feeling of stretching out with more diverse influences – particularly the pastoral British folk/pop of Nick Drake, Traffic, Van Morrison and even Crosby, Stills & Nash.

Packed with extras - including all the relevant b-sides, mixes no less than 21 demos, alternative versions, BBC session tracks and unreleased songs from the Wild Wood period.

The 32-page booklet features extensive new sleevenotes by Lois Wilson, including brand new interviews with Weller and others"

Paul Weller Interviewed During Maida Vale Appearance For BBC Radio 4!

Fresh back from a short tour of the US and Japan, Paul Weller talks about the 30th anniversary of The Jam's sixth and final studio album, The Gift, and where he's at right now. Repost From The Huffington Post By: Jason Holmes Paul Weller bounds into his chair, an electronic cigarette gripped in his hand. We're in the BBC's Studio Three in Maida Vale. Visibly calm owing to post-tour exhaustion and a morning trip to the gym, Weller is here to be interviewed by John Wilson for BBC Radio 4's Mastertapes series. "Back in those days, bands put out an album a year, you toured with it for a year, then you went back in the studio and repeated the process. Looking back, I was glad I experienced that pressure. It helped me refine my craft and find myself as a writer. It kept me on my toes," says Weller, Gibson acoustic on knee. "It wasn't a treadmill, it was just what bands did back then. I never questioned it." Lest the passing decades dim...

BBC's Review Of Paul Weller's "WUTN!"

BBC Review "A parade-worthy triumph from an artist rediscovering his experimental side." Chris Lo 2010-04-09 Over the course of Paul Weller’s career, he has displayed the kind of restless genre-hopping that saw him dissolve The Jam at the height of their powers in favour of experimenting with Motown, funk and synth-jazz with The Style Council. His resurrection as solo artist and exalted figure of the Britpop scene in the 90s saw this experimental spirit recede somewhat in the face of traditional rock releases that propelled him to the peak of the UK charts. As a result, casual listeners tend to identify Weller with the kind of dad-friendly trad-rock that blights record store shelves every time Father’s Day rolls around. However, with 2008’s 22 Dreams and now Wake Up the Nation, fans are being reacquainted with Weller the innovator. Here the Modfather is making full use of his exceptional musical vocabulary, and Wake Up the Nation feels like an unrestrained sonic explo...
